Welcome to Girlguiding Oxfordshire! We are active all over Oxfordshire - Oxford, Banbury, Chipping Norton, Henley on Thames, Bicester, Witney, Thame, Abingdon, Didcot, Wallingford - and everywhere in between!
Guiding is a game - with a purpose. It provides opportunities for girls and young women to be challenged by new adventures and experiences and achieve a sense of pride in accomplishment and teaches them to understand and learn about the world, its people and cultures.
Rainbows, Brownies, Guides, Rangers and Young Leaders and Leaders are members of Girlguiding UK, the largest voluntary organisation for girls and young women in this country. It has about 600,000 members. There are similar organisations throughout the world and Girlguiding UK is a founding member of the world association that unites them.
If you would like to find out more about joining Girlguiding Oxfordshire, please phone 0800 1 69 59 01 or email us.

Girlguiding Centenary
All over the world, members of Girlguiding are preparing to celebrate the 100 year anniversary of the creation of the Guiding movement. Celebrations started in September 2009, and Guides in the UK are already gearing up with the 'Changing the World' project. The centenary is a chance to go all out, push some boundaries, pick up challenges, live a dream and remind ourselves and the wider world what we're really made of. What will your mountain top moment be?
Windrush Division have the use of the upstairs floor in Witney Museum for a display to celebrate '100 years of Guiding' from 19th July - 17th September 2010.
Why not go along and see who you recognise in some of the photographs or perhaps you can help to fill in some of the spaces in our own 'family tree'. There will be uniforms through the ages, displays, videos and DVDs to watch and take you on a trip down memory lane and bring you right up to the present day.
Vision - The Centenary Finale 20:10 20/10 2010 at the Witney Football Stadium, Downs Road, anyone not taking part in their special own Finale are most welcome to come along and join in with Windrush Division.
